A drinkable Starbucks Blend?
I'm not a Starbucks fan, generally. Most of their roasts are a bit overdone for my taste (black as Satan's Testicles, as a particularly eloquent colleague of mine put it).
Unfortunately, I find myself drinking a fair bit of Starbucks these days - a colleague (the eloquent one) and I make coffee in the morning, and Starbucks, or Tully's, or occasionally Seattle's Best are typically what's easy to pick up on the way into the office.
Last time we ran out, I walked down to the nearest 4-bucks and bought a bag of Caffe Verona.
I'll be damned if it isn't drinkable.
It was only today, after brewing it for a few days, that I realized that a friend of mine at UCR had been drinking (and recommending it) while I was there.
Seems I should pay more attention in school.
